How to resolve False Rejection Issue (Identify Fail)

In this document, we would like to introduce how to resolve false rejection issue.

Why false rejection occurs

When there are numerous number of “Identify Fail” logs, it is highly that users’ fingerprint quality is low or the users did not place his/her finger correctly on the sensor. Below is an example of users who are experiencing “Identify Fail”.

When there is false rejection issue after adjusting security level to solve false acceptance issue, users should re-enroll their fingerprint.

Analyzing false rejection issue

Open BioStar Client and go to [Monitoring] menu. Select the date and device where false rejection happens. As shown below, there are numerous number of “Identify Fail” logs. From this log, we can assume that these users tried multiple times to get “Identify Success”.

Look for the user ID who is experiencing “Identify Fail” more than three times.

Now, move to [User] menu and search the user ID. It is important to check the fingerprint quality.

When the templates location is different between each template, users should enroll their fingerprint again. Please see below examples.
